“My approach is to treat writing very much as a job.” — Adam Mansbach

I've always been really involved in figuring out who my audience is and how to reach them.

I've planned book tours for myself, whether or not anybody wants to hear what I have to say. I've weighed in on things like what the cover looks like, what the copy looks like, how it's going to be promoted - just every aspect of it.

I like to read in the bathtub. Ideally, that bathtub would be located on a small Greek island.

To me, 'The End of the Jews' - both the title and the novel itself - is about the end of pat, uncritical ways of understanding oneself in the world.
